The allows you to pair it with up to three devices and switch between them with the press of a button, a useful feature that few Bluetooth keyboards have. The keyboard is comfortable and responsive; it’s also solid enough for desktop or lap use, yet it’s small and light enough for you to slip it in a bag and use it on the go. Logitech says the K380 has up to two years of battery life with heavy use (defined as eight hours a day, five days a week), though the keyboard hasn’t existed long enough for us to test that claim. The K380’s unusual round keys can take some getting used to, and the keyboard lacks backlighting and the operating-system-specific layouts you’ll find on our upgrade picks, but those amenities aren’t available on other keyboards in this price range either. If the K380 is sold out, we recommend waiting for a restock—it’s that much better than the competition in its price range. If you need something right away, however, our upgrade or full-size options below may fit your needs.

If you spend all day typing and need a wireless keyboard, consider Logitech’s Bluetooth Easy-Switch Keyboards (for and ). Our top picks for several years, these two models have long been the gold standard for Bluetooth keyboards because of their smooth, well-spaced keys, their adjustable key backlighting, their platform-specific layouts for Mac and Windows, and their ability to switch instantly between multiple paired devices. But we don’t recommend them for most people because they’re expensive. Unless you need backlighting or a platform-specific layout, we think the K380 is about 80 percent as good for just 40 percent of the price.

If you need a keyboard with a built-in number pad or want to connect to a computer or device without Bluetooth, we suggest the. The K780 also comes with Logitech’s Unifying wireless USB dongle, but it is otherwise very similar to the K380—offering the same round keys, multidevice Bluetooth pairing, and estimated two years of battery life. It adds a number pad and a built-in stand for smartphones and tablets, too. It shares some of the K380’s flaws, however, as it lacks backlighting and isn’t available in Windows- or Mac-specific layouts. Kimber Streams has tested, lived with, and reviewed hundreds of computer accessories, and builds mechanical keyboards for fun. After narrowing things down, they tested 25 Bluetooth and wireless keyboards with the help of four panelists with varying typing techniques and skill levels.

They then spent months using the most promising Bluetooth keyboards for daily work. Phil Dzikiy reviewed hundreds of tech accessories during his tenure at iLounge. He retested our previous top picks against some of the strongest competitors from last time around, and added eight more keyboards to our test lineup. Who this is for. Wireless and Bluetooth keyboards can help you declutter your desk, type more comfortably on your phone or tablet, or use a computer or TV streaming box from your couch without running a cable across the room.

Traditional wireless keyboards, or RF (radio frequency) keyboards, typically include a small USB dongle that you need to plug into your computer for them to work. Historically they’ve been cheaper than Bluetooth keyboards, and they’re easier to set up since you don’t need to pair the keyboard to your computer as you do with a Bluetooth keyboard; they may also be a better fit for older laptops or desktops that don’t support the Bluetooth standard. But that dongle takes up a USB port, and you have no easy way to use these keyboards with phones or tablets. And most wireless keyboards these days have clunky, outdated designs that offer an inferior typing experience. All of our picks, therefore, are Bluetooth keyboards—but we have a pick that, if that’s what you require. For most people, the Bluetooth standard is a better option.
